Provided are a land settlement measuring apparatus and a land settlement measuring system. The land settlement measuring apparatus includes a magnetic field detection unit, a microprocessor, and a containing unit. The magnetic field detection unit includes a plurality of magnetic field detection sensors that are separated from each other in a predetermined interval. The microprocessor calculates a differential settlement amount based on a magnetic field detection signal transmitted from the magnetic field detection unit, in the case where a change in the magnetic field is detected by the sensor. The containing unit contains the magnetic field detection unit and the microprocessor. The land settlement measuring system includes a magnetic field generation unit, a land settlement measuring apparatus, and a data logger. The magnetic field generation unit is disposed at a predetermined position of a ground to be adjacent to a hole which is perforated down to an unmovable layer. The land settlement measuring apparatus passes through the hole so that the one end thereof is fixed to the unmovable layer, the land settlement measuring apparatus measuring a differential settlement amount according to a change in the position of the magnetic field generation unit. The data logger stores a result of the measurement transmitted from the land settlement measuring apparatus. According to the configuration, it is possible to collectively measure a differential settlement amount of a surface of a settling layer and a differential settlement amount of the settling layer in one system and to obtain a more accurate value of the measurement.

In an embodiment, an image sensor includes an isolation layer disposed in a semiconductor substrate to define a first active region and a second active region extending from the first active region. A photodiode is disposed in a portion of the first active region. A floating diffusion region is provided in the second active region at a position spaced apart from the photodiode. A transfer gate electrode is disposed on the second active region between the photodiode and the floating diffusion region. The transfer gate electrode is disposed to cover both sidewalls and an upper portion of the second active region. The transfer gate electrode has a region extending onto the first active region and overlapping the photodiode. The photodiode has a protrusion into the second active region at the portion adjacent to the transfer gate electrode. A deep n-impurity region of the photodiode extends in the protrusion.

A water purifier includes a replaceable pre-processing filter, a washable membrane, and a replaceable post-processing filter through which potable water is sequentially conducted. A controller determines a total use time of the filters and membrane and compares the total use time with a reference time for replacement of the filters and washing of the membrane. When the total use time for the filters has reached the reference time, visual and audio indicators are activated. When the total use time for the membrane has reached the reference time, a valve is actuated which permits potable water to flow across and clean the membrane and then be discharged to waste.
